उत्तर

80 kgs.

Explanation:

Here,
Average weight of three men X, Y and Z = 75 kgs.

∴ Total weight of three men X, Y and Z = 75 × 3 = 225 kgs.

A joins the group and average weight = 80 kgs

∴ Total weight of this group = 80 × 4 = 320 kgs.

∴ weight of A = 320 – 225 = 95 kgs.

∴ weight of B is 5 kg more than A.

∴ weight of B = 95 + 5 = 100 kgs.

Total weight of X, Y, A, and Z = 320 kgs.

Total weight of X, Y, AB and Z = 320 + 100 = 420 kgs.

Total weight of Y, Z, A and B = 85 × 4 = 340 kg.

∴ weight of X = (420 – 340) = 80 kgs.
